Another one i have used was just a box that came with partitions inside already so I just cut holes in some of the partitions and placed treats inside it.

I just went and looked and found a video I did of it - I called it my rubbish maze!!!

The 3rd one I have made is actually coming out on my youtube channel in a couple of weeks. So this is a sneak preview
It is basically a roller skate box, I laid the top and the bottom of the box out on the floor and connected with tunnels and added a sandbath section and different substrates with different recycled boxes and egg cartons and I placed treats for my syrian Twinkle to find.

I use them when it is free roaming time.

Mine are not anywhere near the epic ones you see online, I just wanted to make a safe one out of recycling.

One word of advice in case you were not aware, a lot of the hamster mazes online use those little plastic balls, they are not safe for your hamster, just replace it with different types of bedding or tissue/toilet roll strips. It will still be fun but just safer for your hamster.

I hope you share pics/videos of what you end up making.
Hi, I just checked out your video, I love the colour of Sunny. Although I read the comment about having to say goodbye to Sunny its great that a video of her will be helping people in the future, good job

My son has aspirations to make some of the epic videos that you see on Youtube, we managed one so far that had a card theme with every level being a different suit - Playing Card Maze

I will certainly be checking out some of your other videos and subscribe to future ones.
